Lyrics
This town I'm in can't take no more
Decadence and sin
You were my woman
Why'd you have to be so hard and cold
[Chorus]
Paris is burning
Want to see it from afar
Paris is burning
Want to get to where you are
My life's in ruin
The girl I love
She's far away
The distant fire
Brings memories of the love
That I once knew
Where are you now
Been looking all around
And I can't stay
Help me now
I can't stay
Much more before I fade away
[Chorus]
I can't believe
You'd throw it all away
You know you played me for a fool (huh)
I'm leavin' now
This time you know
That I'll be gone for good, yeah
Paris is burning, Paris
Paris is burning
Paris is burning
I can see it from afar
Paris is burning
Paris
